4. I've asked that very question of a few people who say that we need to
keep the tax cuts. The tax cuts have been around for 10 years now, and I don't see that jobs have been created because of them.

25. You can have a photobucket account for free; the catch is, you have a lot of flashing ads
to put up with.

6. After thirty years of outsourcing, deregulation and privatization?
Thirty years of denigrating unions? Where are the jobs? Where is the increased standard of living?

10. The new excuse: uncertainty that the tax cut might expire.
The bottom line is, Republicans are selfish, greedy fuckers who are deliberately trying to destroy the economy so they can remake it into a Dickensian paradise of sweat shops and child labor.

15. I do believe that one of the main purposes of getting rid of unions is
to eliminate any protections the workers now have so that they can move those outsourced corporations back to the U.S. in order to remake it into a Dickensian paradise of sweat shops and child labor.

20. The main one is that unions know economic history and win elections. Bottom line: Kill the ideas.

23. yes, da jobs! da jobs!
....speculation, rigged prices and no jobs is what you get when you have your economic system owned and controlled by banksters, gamblers and con-artists....

....they're holding our jobs hostage until we pay them more bailout, tax-break ransom....if they didn't control our government too, we could create our own jobs....but these enemies-of-the-people, won't let us....

....so, no jobs....

24. I have a Republican friend who told me years ago that the rich needed those tax cut to create jobs.
I asked the same thing, but the same claims are still being made today.

33. It's INSANE that the GOP still holds onto the belief that tax cuts create jobs.
My suspicion is that they don't believe it any more than we do.

They hold onto the 'low taxes many jobs' mantra just to give their dull headed followers something to say.

The real reason is that they simply want to grab everything for themselves.

Their real mantra is:
If you're not rich, powerful or lucky enough to grab a big piece of pie for yourself -- that's your problem, not mine so go to hell.
